Champions
Online has always had a wide
variety of powers for players to choose for their mighty superheroes.
Finally, that vast number of powers has been added to. In the newest
expansion for
style="font-style: italic;">CO,
Revelation, six new powers become available for the mighty defenders of
justice in the action-packed
style="font-style: italic;">Champions
Universe.

In Revelation, players travel to the newest zone in the game, Vibora
Bay. This seaside city, located in the Florida panhandle, is a mystical
based zone with lots of southern gothic charm. It is Vibora Bay that is
the means to acquiring these new powers.

To begin, the new powers are considered Tier 4 powers. This means that
to get the new power, you have to have 10 powers already from the power
grouping that the power is based in. An example is Energy Storm which
is based on the Energy Projector power sets, which are: Electricity,
Fire, Force, and Ice power sets. You must have at least 10 powers from
those power sets to get Energy Storm. In addition to needing 10 powers,
you also need to have finished the Vibora Bay Apocalypse mission chain.
This mission chain is the Crisis introduction to the zone. To recap: to
gain access to the new Tier 4 powers, you need to finish the Vibora Bay
Apocalypse mission chain and have 10 powers from the power grouping
associated with the Tier 4 power itself.

We will now examine the new Tier 4 powers one by one. We’ll
list the associated power sets for each power, the type of power, the
effects, and any advantages that you can purchase for the power.
Sharp-eyed players will note that all of the new powers are attack
powers. These new powers are all about laying the smackdown on your
foes!

Description: You throw an Implosion Engine, a device that generates a
massive gravitational vortex in a very small area, sucking in nearby
matter, and dealing significant dimensional damage. The Engine can be
targeted and destroyed, but since you're a genius, you thought of that,
so, obviously, you gave it a force field.

The Engine can be targeted
and damaged, but is protected by a forcefield.

Increasing the rank of this
power increases both the damage it deals and the strength of its
forcefield.

The damage caused by this
device generates an extremely high amount of aggro, drawing the fire of
affected enemies. Only a small portion of this aggro transfers back to
you when the Engine dies or expires.

Advantages:

Inverse Polarization Field
–After six seconds, the polarity of the gravitational field
created by your implosion engine will reverse, sending all affected
enemies flying.

As you can see, the Tier 4 powers dovetail nicely into the roles
associated with the various power sets, such as Fury of the Dragon
being a nice melee DPS power. In fact, most of the powers (Fury of the
Dragon, Energy Storm, Implosion Engine, and Mind Link) are good for
various DPS builds. Unleashed Rage is a nice tank power, dealing
damage, fear, and knockdown, while Planar Fracture is a good support
power in that while dealing damage to a target, it does debuff nearby
enemies. Great for messing up the well-laid plans of the bad guys.

There you have it, my friends; a
comprehensive list of the new Tier 4 powers to be found in Vibora Bay.
While not game breaking, these new powers will help enhance the
effectiveness of your heroes as they sally forth into a world in need
of justice. Now get out there and start doing some good!
